I should point out that the new network-bridge script appears to have
cured the original problem on the SLES 9 boxes; at least xen-br0 is
coming up and Dom0 retains networking on those boxes.

On the FC3 box:

I cannot connect to or from the outside (ssh, ping, nfs mounts, etc).

It seems that packets from the outside world are coming in.

I entered 'tcpdump -n -i eth0 host 9.53.94.235' then when I tried to ssh
from the other machine, it shows up on the tcpdump. But the ssh session
is never established. Ping shows up as well.

Same.
